Everton vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Out-of-sorts Everton will be desperate to get back to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on Wolverhampton Wanderers at Goodison Park.

Everton are rapidly approaching the relegation zone after losing their last three Premier League matches on the trot, including a humiliating 5-0 defeat at the hands of Tottenham in the previous round. With just a single point separating them from 18th-placed Burnley, the ‘Toffees’ are keen to defy their underwhelming four-game league form at Goodison (W1, L3). They are up against a Wolves side they’ve only lost to once across their last ten home league H2Hs (W6, D3), courtesy of a 3-1 thumping in February 2019. But after going down 2-1 in the reverse fixture at Molineux, the struggling Merseyside heavyweights face the prospect of suffering a league double against Wolves for the first time since 1972/73. That’s not out of the realm of possibility, as they’re going three top-flight outings without scoring.

Meanwhile, Wolverhampton’s dreams of securing a European finish got back on the rails following an overwhelming 4-0 home win over Watford last time out. After putting an end to their frustrating three-game league losing streak, Wolves will be desperate to halt a run of consecutive away defeats in the Premier League. Delivering action from the onset, Bruno Lage’s men have registered each of their last three Premier League away goals scored within the opening 20 minutes of play. However, only five sides have netted fewer Premier League goals on the road than Wolverhampton (14) this season. Against this backdrop, they have scored in five of their last six top-flight visits to Everton, bagging 2+ goals twice in a row before falling to a 1-0 reverse in this exact fixture last season.
